out of curiosity I did a search and found someone else try to make the Roy Moore comparison
https://twitter.com/education4libs/status/1024059766530875392?s=21 so this is probably where Ulti got it because he doesn't actually come up with anything on his own --- For your BK_Sheikah00. At least Kupo has class and doesn't MESSAGE the people -Dr Pizza ... Copied to Clipboard!

The same people saying this s*** would want any conservative fired and arrested for the same thing. Roy Moore is a great proof for this. Dude is a POS and absolutely deserved his fall from grace. Then Al Franken gropes a girl thats asleep and the same exact people defend him. Kevin Spacey rapes teenage boys and the same people defend him. James Gunn jokes about raping kids and the same people defend him. No liberal double standards allowed. You either want anyone banned who posts dumb shit, or no one. And I am not in any way defending Roy Moore. That dude is trash. --- Get the X out. Vinateri was using his god powers on the Pats and then was like "Wait I'm a Colt now lol" and now you have it. ...

I don't think the bar for banning someone should be posting dumb shit. You're posting dumb shit right now and I don't want you banned.
If you're not defending Moore, then you're way over-villainizing Gunn by comparing them at all. The two situations are completely different. No one's accused Gunn of actually assaulting them. --- For your BK_Sheikah00. At least Kupo has class and doesn't MESSAGE the people -Dr Pizza ... Copied to Clipboard!

yeah at least with Roseanne there's the same premise of being fired from a job because of things you tweeted OK, fine But still don't give credence to the Roseanne comparison, like, at all. We shouldn't really get into, like, percentages of absurdity, they should just be treated as equally dumb. Because I don't really believe that anyone actually thinks Roseanne is a valid comparison and it pisses me off to see people make it because it's a perfect example of the poor grounding that almost every political argument seems to have. They know it's bullshit. And even if they put no thought into it and just spewed it out because of the extremely, extremely surface similarities, there is no excuse to double down on it once it has been explained to you. But that's just classic stubbornness - the real issue here is the people who are making the comparison while knowing it's actually invalid. And that's most of them, imo. tl;dr: Not only is the Roseanne comparison garbage, everybody knows it's garbage, including the people who actually use it, so when you give it credence even by comparison you're allowing these people way more rope than they deserve. --- Not to be confused with XIII_Stones. ...

Comparing to Roseanne is at least in the same category of "you said something offensive in a joke and now you pay for it." You can say it's absurd but I think there are at least potentially interesting distinctions to try and make, like where the line is drawn. If Roseanne said what she said 10 years ago is it unacceptable if she apologized? What if Gunn hadn't? You're at least working on a scale there.
With Moore you're comparing something different. It was never exclusively about anything he said, and it was about a completely different type of job at that. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! ... Copied to Clipboard!

Just a reminder: Ulti's "side" won and his decision was to become more unhinged.

Roseanne also specifically attacked another person in her offensive tweet too.

People forget the most important reasons why the Roseanne thing is different
Reason 1: Roseanne wasn't fired, her show was canceled Reason 2: The show was ultimately canceled because Roseanne pissed off her head writer and caused her to quit ... Copied to Clipboard!
